- the invention relates to a jacketing material that exhibits good resistance to stress and/or thermal cracking.
- Polyolefin resins are commonly used as a material for the sheath layers, e.g., insulation, outer jacket, etc., of wires and cables.
- additives often must be blended with the polyolefin resins.
- These additives include organic halogenated compounds and flame retardant aids such as antimony trioxide.
- these additives can cause smoking and/or the emission of harmful gases when subjected to burning, and can also cause metals to corrode.

- the use of a non-halogenated flame retardant has its own problems.
- One principal problem is that a considerable amount of non-halogenated flame retardant is necessary to achieve the same level of flame retardance as that achieved from using a halogenated flame retardant.
- This higher loading of flame retardant adversely affect the polyolefin resin in terms of extrudability, mechanical properties, flexibility, and low temperature performance, but it also increases the susceptibility of the polyolefin resin in the form of a wire or cable insulation or sheathing to stress and thermal cracking.

- the cracking is sometimes attributable to large agglomerations of Mg(OH) 2 .
- Low cost Mg(OH) 2 typically are not surface coated, and thus have a relatively high surface energy (>90 mJ/m 2 ) and this, in turn, can result in a high level of agglomeration in the wire or cable insulation or sheath.

- a silanol condensation catalyst such as dibutyl tin dilaurate, dioctyl tin maleate, stannous acetate, stannous octoate, lead naphthenate, zinc octoate, iron 2-ethyl hexoate, and other metal carboxylates.
- the organic peroxides can be the same as those mentioned above for crosslinking.
- composition can also be blended and kneaded using a BANBURYTM mixer, a HENSCHELTM mixer, a kneader, a multi-screw extruder, or continuous mixer to obtain a uniformly compounded composition.
- the resin composition can be mixed and the cable coated with the resin composition can be prepared in various types of extruders, some of which are described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,814,135, 4,857,600, 5,076,988 and 5,153,382.
- a variety of types of single screw and twin screw extruders and polymer melt pumps and extrusion processes will generally be suitable in effecting the process of this invention.
- a typical extruder commonly referred to as a fabrication extruder, will have a solids feed hopper at its upstream end and a melt forming die at its downstream end. The hopper feeds unfluxed plastics into the feed section of a barrel containing the processing screw(s) that flux and ultimately pump the plastic melt through the forming die.
- Fabrication extruders typically accomplish the mechanisms of solids conveying and compression, plastics fluxing, melt mixing and melt pumping although some two stage configurations use a separate melt fed extruder or melt pump equipment for the melt pumping mechanism.
- Extruder barrels are equipped with barrel heating and cooling features for startup and improved steady state temperature control. Modern equipment usually incorporates multiple heating/cooling zones starting at the rear feed zone and segmenting the barrel and downstream shaping die. The length to diameter ratio of each barrel is in the range of 15:1 to 30:1.
- the advantages of the invention lie in a relatively low amount of inorganic flame retardant, excellent flame- and heat-resistance, mechanical properties superior to conventional products, good moldability, good low temperature performance, good processability and flexibility, essentially no emission of harmful gases such as halogen, and good stress/thermal resistance to cracking.
- the subject cable comprises one or more electrical conductors or communications media, or a core of two or more electrical conductors or communications media, in which at least one, preferably each, electrical conductor, communications medium, or core is surrounded by a sheath or an insulation layer comprising a composition of the present invention.
- the electrical conductors are generally copper or aluminum and the communications media are generally fiber optics made of glass fibers.
- AMPLIFY EA 100 is an ethylene ethyl acrylate copolymer (i) comprising 15 wt % units derived from ethyl acrylate, and (ii) having a density of 0.932 g/cc, and a melt mass-flow rate (MFR, ASTM D1238 at 190 C/2.16 kg) of 1.3 g/10 min.
- AMPLIFY GR 208 is a post-reactor, MAH-grafted ethylene-butene copolymer.

- ENGAGE ENR 7360.00 is an ethylene-butene copolymer with a density of 0.875 and an MFR of 1 g/10 min.
- HUBERCARB G3T is calcium carbonate (3 micron average particle size) available from J.M. Huber Corporation and comprising a surface treatment of 0.75 to 1.5 percent stearic acid.

- VERTEX 60ST is an uncoated grade of magnesium hydroxide with an average particle size of 1.5 micron and available from J.M. Huber Corporation and comprising a surface treatment of a fatty acid.
- KISUMA 5B-1G is magnesium hydroxide coated with oleic acid and with an average particle size of 0.65 micron available from Kyowa Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.
- MAGSHIELD UF is a magnesium hydroxide with a stearate coating, and it is available from Martin Marietta Magnesia Specialties.
- INDUSTRENE 5016 is stearic acid available from Chemtura.
- MB50-320 masterbatch is a pelletized formulation containing 50% of an ultra-high molecular weight siloxane polymer dispersed in EVA polymer. It is available from Dow Corning Corporation.
- IRGANOX 1010 is a hindered phenol based antioxidant available from Ciba Specialty Chemicals.
- Table 1 reports that formulations using Mg(OH) 2 as the filler in an EEA/single-site elastomer matrix results in thermal/stress cracking, while surprisingly both the CaCO 3 and ATH formulations did not crack.
- the use of ATH or blend of ATH/CaCO 3 is preferred over CaCO 3 because of the better inherent flame retardation properties. While not wanting to be bound to theory, the cracking may be attributed to large agglomerates of Mg(OH) 2 compared to ATH, as shown in Table 1.
